Description

TestImpalaShell.test_http_socket_timeout fails when running with a Python 3 impala-shell due to this difference in the error message:

>     assert result.stderr.splitlines()[0] == expected_err
E     assert 'Caught excep...ning tries: 3' == 'Caught except...ning tries: 3'
E       Skipping 59 identical leading characters in diff, use -v to show
E       - e=<class 'BlockingIOError'> in OpenSession. Num remaining tries: 3
E       ?           ^^   ^^^^^^
E       + e=<class 'socket.error'> in OpenSession. Num remaining tries: 3
E       ?           ^   ^^^^

It seems like this is just different on Python 3, and we could tolerate either error message.
